CPRC President & Chief Counsel Vernadette Broyles is featured in this powerful The Epoch Times investigation into the legal battles over parental rights in teen transgender cases.

"Adults have got to stop allowing mentally distressed, underdeveloped minors run the show."

Parents’ authority must be affirmed - not undermined by states & courts. We’re fighting back in the courts and in legislatures across the country.

We also recently filed an amicus brief in the Supreme Court case International Partners for Ethical Care (IPEC) v. Ferguson, supporting IPEC’s petition for review of Washington’s harmful laws that separate children from parents who won’t affirm a transgender identity.

Parents who say they were separated from children for refusing to affirm transgender identity are still fighting states, and each other, in court.

Parents deserve to know what their kids are actually watching. Concerned Women for America found that more than 40% of Netflix children’s programming now includes LGBTQ+ and transgender themes — often in shows still rated TV-G or TV-Y7. The FCC is accepting public comments until May 22 on updating TV parental guidance ratings.

We need voices of truth to speak up and give their input to the FCC now. The FCC is currently being FLOODED with pro-LGBT comments. Join the Child and Parental Rights Campaign and Concerned Women for America: tell the FCC to update their TV rating system and make it clear to parents when transgender-related content is included. The FCC must stop letting streaming services hide this harmful content from parents.

Please watch as CPRC President / Chief Counsel Vernadette Broyles and January Littlejohn discuss the recent SCOTUS denial of cert in the Littlejohn vs. Leon County School System case.

CPRC’s Official Statement:

We are of course highly disappointed in the United States Supreme Court for denying cert in the Littlejohn vs Leon County Board of Education case. This case was another in which the court could have affirmed its commitment to protecting parental rights and child safety and for reasons we’ll never know, chose not to. But while this ruling is disappointing, it is NOT devastating to the cause. With SCOTUS already having ruled in the Mirabelli case, the tide is already turning in the direction of truth and parental rights, and our resolve to continue the fight has never been stronger.

Today the U.S. Supreme Court denied certiorari in Foote v. Ludlow, a case that presented a clear and compelling opportunity to protect the fundamental constitutional rights of parents against school policies that secretly transition children without parental knowledge or consent.

As co-counsel for the Foote family — and for the still-pending Littlejohn v. Leon County case — I am disappointed by the Court’s decision not to hear Foote. The case squarely raised the question of whether schools may withhold critical information from parents and override their judgment on matters of their child’s health, well-being, and upbringing.

The Court offered no reasoning for its denial, and it would not be productive to speculate on its thinking. What is undeniable is that the Supreme Court now has one remaining opportunity to provide the nation with clear, final precedent on this issue. Littlejohn v. Leon County is fully briefed on the merits and presents the ideal vehicle for the Court to confirm that parents — not schools — have the constitutionally protected right to direct the upbringing of their children, including decisions involving gender identity and whether their child will be affirmed and raised as their s*x at school.

Mirabelli v. Bonta was encouraging, but it was a procedural ruling. Littlejohn offers the Court the chance to address the merits directly and settle the law nationwide.

Regardless of court rulings, Child & Parental Rights Campaign will never stop fighting. We will continue to defend parental rights, protect children’s health from the harms of transgender ideology, and hold schools accountable when they place ideology above family integrity.

Parents are the primary decision-makers for their children. That right is fundamental, bound in natural law, and protected by the Constitution. CPRC will keep fighting until every court in the land recognizes it.

For the Children,
Vernadette Broyles

Great news! School district settles with teacher that blew the whistle about keeping gender identity information from parents.

FIRST ON FOX: An Indiana school counselor, who was fired for speaking out against a district policy that required employees to keep students' gender transitions secret from parents, has settled her lawsuit for $200,000.

Kathy McCord, a veteran educator of 37 years, argued the policy forced staff to lie to students and parents.

She’s now celebrating the settlement alongside a new Indiana law requiring parental notification for pronoun and name changes.

We must not allow weaponized state CPS agencies to separate children from parents who refuse to accept a child’s rejection of biological reality!

The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) just sent a letter to all 50 states defending parental rights and biological reality against transgender ideology. No more removing children from loving homes just because parents say no to dangerous s*x rejecting interventions. CPRC's advocacy helped pave the way—read how this advances our fight to protect families at the link in the first comment.
